Choices? want to buy my first 51 or 57 tv: is crt lcd/dlp or rpt crt the route to go?
I have an older 26 flat screen sony (and high end audio gear) and want to buy my first 51" or 57" widescreen HT tv but am indecisive as to which venue to pursue: rpt lcd/ldp or rpt crt based tvs.
I've done a fair amount of research and although RPT ldc and dlp are lighter than RPT CRT based, the technology is still not quite there...esp with speed images leaving a trace...more over the cost difference for similar screen sizes is a big difference. ie, i'm looking at a hitachi 57s500
for only cdn$2600 vs $4500 for a sony RPT lcd.
Any suggestions on both the route to go and the model to choose
....i don't want to spend alot and in 1-3 yrs have something outdated.
cheers
